pendant lighting

Suspended ceiling lights

Pendant lighting refers to light fixtures suspended from the ceiling by a cord, chain, or metal rod.

Pendants hang at a fixed point rather than flush against the ceiling, directing light downward over specific areas: Pendant lighting over the kitchen island, a row of industrial pendants above the bar.

The style ranges from single bulbs to elaborate chandeliers.
